In keeping with our thrust of solidifying Belle Vue's image as the "Cultural Capital of Saint Lucia", we the members of the Belle Vue Development Committee have organized a national drumming festival to commemorate National Day in Saint Lucia on the 13th of December, 2014.

According to the President of the Belle Vue Development Committee, Kendell Elva, this first event of its kind will be held at the Belle Vue Human Resource Development Centre from 6:30 pm. Avot Sevis, Harmony Trio, Tamboo Mele and Wanjman are the main drumming groups that will be featured during this highly anticipated festival.

In addition to these groups, he says, many solo drummers will perform pieces using the traditional drum. Other performing acts at the festival include: Miracle Dancers, No Limit Dancers, Belle Vue La Rose Group, Isla James' Models and poets from Vieux-Fort North and environs.

Very importantly, Mr Elva adds is that all funds raised at this activity will be donated to Mr Albert Antoine of Grace, Vieux-Fort who is in urgent need of medical treatment.
